Three Rivers Photography's wedding shoots blend sweet candids with more posed tableaus—of the wedding party on a carousel, for example, or the couple locking eyes, both draped in the bride's veil. The studio's portfolio extends beyond wedding photography, too, with shots of football games, concerts, and picturesque Pittsburgh landscapes.

In their 3,000-square-foot studio or on-location, the visual-media experts at FineLine Weddings—whose striking, modern images earned a bride’s-choice award from WeddingWire.com—record special moments with photography and videography. Although they specialize in wedding, engagement, bridal, and “trash the dress” photography, their services also include boudoir photography, senior portraits, and a variety of prints, keepsakes, and albums. In the studio, 24 backdrop designs and sets offer customers a choice of settings, and flexible photographers can capture an array of moods including elegant, goofy, artistic, romantic, or hungry for pizza. Clients are encouraged to bring their own music to their photo shoots, or they can select music from FineLine’s satellite-radio system.
After photo shoots, a dedicated staff of professional photo editors touch up all photos, and FineLine Weddings guarantees that wedding photos will be ready within eight weeks of the wedding date. To complete momentous days, FineLine also offers wedding DJ and photo-booth-rental services.

If you’ve been to a wedding in the last five years, you most likely have a pile of wacky photo strips to show for it, thanks to the popularity of custom photo booths. Though the booths have been a huge hit at weddings for years now, their ubiquity doesn’t show any signs of slowing down. For wedding guests, the booths are a fun diversion, giving folks a form of entertainment beyond dancing or sitting at a table thinking about how much they hate dancing.But what to do with all those photos once you get home?Instead of cramming them into a drawer or haphazardly hanging them on the fridge, you can follow this simple DIY to turn them into a stylish tray. The tray serves as a catchall accent piece to make a coffee table or side table appear organized and clutter-free. Plus, each time you sit down on the couch, you’ll be delighted by your friends’ goofy faces.But don’t worry—to get this look you won’t have to destroy the original copies. All you need are a few craft supplies and the help from a scanner and printer.What You Need: Photo strips Wooden or metal tray Gold paint Mod Podge Small paintbrush Scanner Printer ScissorsWhat You Do:1. Scan your photo strips.2. Print multiple copies of them so you have enough photos to fill up the entire tray.3. Paint the top edge of the tray gold.4. Mod Podge each strip onto the tray. If you need to cut them to make them fit better, go for it! I had photo strips of varying sizes, so I just made sure to overlap and cut the strips so each column is exactly in line.5. After about 15 minutes, paint a layer of Mod Podge on top of the photo strips. Repeat this step three times every 20–25 minutes to get a shiny finish.
